Interpretation
Taken at face value, the sentence asserts that boldness—“nerve”—is the decisive ingredient that turns unlikely outcomes into achievable ones. It frames possibility not as a matter of talent or luck but as a willingness to risk embarrassment, failure, or opposition. The aphorism also carries an implicit critique of self-censorship: many limits are social or psychological, maintained by fear rather than necessity. Read this way, the quote celebrates courage as a practical force that expands one’s options, even if it does not literally make “anything” possible in an absolute sense.
